Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Wed 30 Jun, 05:54–19:11 (Trayodashi, sunrise to sunset: Tithika’s convention)
Dwadashi ends at 03:46 on Wed 30 Jun, in the night, before arunodaya (04:18): Tithika counts a Dwadashi that ended in the night as absent, its convention. With no Dwadashi, the Nirnayasindhu has parana on Trayodashi: from sunrise, 05:54, to sunset, 19:11, since parana is a day act: Tithika’s convention.
